THE DEVIL
In shadows cast, where darkness thrives,
A figure lurks, with malevolent eyes.
The Devil, whispered in tales of old,
A symbol of temptations manifold.
Cloaked in deceit, with a cunning grin,
A mastermind of chaos from within.
In folklore spun and scriptures penned,
The embodiment of sins, some contend.
A rebel angel, once adorned with light,
Now dwelling in the realms of night.
With whispers sly and fiery schemes,
The Devil haunts our mortal dreams.
Yet, in the depths of this abyss,
Reflections of our darker bliss.
A mirror to our flaws and fears,
The Devil's guise, a warning near.
A choice defined by each soul's sway,
To resist temptation or lead astray.
In verses dark and tales untold,
The Devil's myth, a story unfolds.
